LAPIS LAZULI
Lapis lazuli, often called lapis, is a deep-blue metamorphic rock prized for its intense color. Unlike most gems, it’s not a single mineral; it’s primarily composed of lazurite, which typically makes up 30-40% of the rock, along with calcite and pyrite that enhance its striking appearance. This captivating stone is celebrated for its rich history and stunning hue, making it a fantastic choice for collectors and enthusiasts.
